STATE CORRESPONDENCE.
North Haven.

NORTH HAVEN, April 4.-A goodly number were present at both churches at the center yesterday. Rev. MT. Reynolds was in his ac- customed place and led in @ very earnest prayer. MT Foote read an exceedingly in teresting letter from Carlisle barracks Indian training school in response to the donation sent to the school. The letter gave much in formation and some altogether new ideas in regard to the buildings and the school at that place. The photographs of the eleven pupils which were exhibited last Sunday were also shown again yesterday and seemed very attractive to many. The first picture showed the natives they were originally and the second, taken four months after, was a marked improvement in every way and spoke plainer than words how much educa tion can do for the young Indians.
 The Congregational church is to be open for service on Friday at the usual hour of morning service. MT. Reynolds in giving the notice said there were subjects of much in- terest on which he would like to talk to the but he did not wish to talk to empty seats. It is to be hoped the church will be filled and as the Governors proclamation says it t'is not day for man to affiict his soul, but rather to deal bread to the hungry, D friends can give to the needy, go to church together and then eat good dinner.
 A society of the Order of Tonti was organ ized in Linsley's Hall on Friday evening with about twenty-five charter members. Dr. R. B. Goodyear, Joseph Pierpont, E. L.. Linsley and Alfred Tomlinson are among the prominent ones.
 Mrs. Charles Turner has been absent about week visiting friends in Norwalk. She returned on Friday.

ln Memory of Bertte.

I'm Memory of Bert1e. Written for the JOURNAL AND CoURIER.l Bertie is dead. my own loved bird, What good the tears cry? I was not near to care and guard When evil thoughts were nigh. My darling pet, whose feathers bright Fluttered to welcome day Ere yet the gilded car of light Had entered on it's way; Who in that glad soft coming light, Reckless of fear or wrong, With chirpings cast away the night And greeted day with song; My yellow bird, whose song-talk called When thoughts of unknown future thralled And present life lay dim. Yes, I forgot you sometimes, but loved you all the same. And, Oh, the joy that flooded thought When but heard your name. An now your name has sorrow grown, And saddest of that pain The memory is had but known could have saved you then. My darling bird, I loved you so, We were so long together, Together we have watched the blue And sung with sunshine weather. You saw the white clouds in the sky, Soft gathering, floating there; wondered if you longed to fly, While sunshine filled the air. I loved that sunshine for your sake, Because you loved it so, And said that orange blooms should make Some day shade for you; A castle cage should be your home, With tiny lake of blue, And strange bright leaves of rarest bloom With sunshine gleaming through. But now you're gone my Bertie own, And promises are vain, And though white clouds with sunshine come My heart will throb with pain. I've heard of every hour it's tone While weeping for you, pet; The night moves Slow-'tiS not yet gone, You would not waken yet. Sad vigil do hold alone In memory of thee; Our last farewell, my loved, my own, No careless one may see. Now night fees on. it's darkness torn, The dawn looks through the gray, My darling one, forever flown, You will not sing to day.
